i think both native and 1440 are great
devout tusk
Recoil feels nice tho. Everything looks so steady
wet skiff
Vertical aim feels so bad for me on stretched
use RawAccel to multiply your vertical sens by 1.333 when playing stretcehd
that will bring your aim back to "square"
wet skiff
yes. That is mathematically how it works.
wet skiff
I guess you could use the formula for it, but I think the difference is pretty close to being negligible if I'm being honest
devout tusk
There is no perfect multiplier
wet skiff
I think you're thinking of this:
cm / (tangent(zoomFOV/2)/tan(hipfireFOV/2)) with fov in degrees
You can use this to calculate exact difference you'd need for 1:1 sens feeling between different fovs
echo inlet
How should I move when someone is ad spamming? Should I mirror/anti mirror or just adjust my aim? Because tracking an ad spamming enemy specially with pistol strafe speed is a bit harder.
wet skiff
but in the case of 4:3 vs 4:3 stretched, I'm pretty sure you can just multiply by 1.333, because all you're doing is stretching the image by 33% on a standard monitor. I don't think you need to worry about anything else
if all your goal is doing is having 1:1 for x:y axis
devout tusk
Im thinking about the general concept of projecting a 3d space onto a flat plane and how two different fov angles have different distortion because the arcs of each is different.
wet skiff
Yea, but in the case of 4:3 to 4:3 stretch, you aren't changing fov - you are changing the pixel width
devout tusk
...
What di you think stretching is
You are stretching the same fov to a wider plane
So in game you are 110, but thats really 123 16:9, by stretching it you made the 16:9 horizontal fov 110, but left vertical fov the same
wet skiff
I think stretching is exactly what I said. You're effectively just changing the width of the pixels. Your view doesn't actually change, it's the exact same. The only difference is that your pixels are now 33% wider(assuming standard 16:9 monitor) than before. This means moving, say, 1 cm left and 1 cm up, you're going to move 33% further in horizontal distance than in vertical.
wet skiff
So in game you are 110, but thats really 123 16:9, by stretching it you made the...
No, this is incorrect. You are still in the exact same FOV by stretching the image. The game itself doesn't even know you stretched the image, it treats it exactly the same as 4:3.
devout tusk
I feel like that doesnt matter but im mega tired rn so you might be right
dull falcon

i noticed its easier to mirror the strafe
devout tusk
Having trouble holding the mental model together lol
wet skiff
Think about an image on a shirt with a stretchy material, then pulling on it - the image is getting wider, but nothing is actually changing - it's same fov and image as before.
devout tusk
The problem though is that the movement isnt linear
wet skiff
that's only true for when you are changing different fovs. When you're just adjusting image size(which stretching is doing) - that isn't relevant. For example, you can take the same setup on a 21" monitor and a 24" monitor and they'll be the same, the 24" will just be slightly bigger
devout tusk
If you arent looking level with the ground, horizontal motions dont produce the same on screen movement
Irrespective of fov
wet skiff
So you can think of going from 4:3 to 4:3 stretched as going to a bigger monitor, but only on the horizontal axis. It's the exact same pixels rendering, same fov, same sens, but the pixels are slightly larger, only in this case, only on the x axis
devout tusk
Im talking about
Man im so lost now
U know what tomorrow ill try it
But also the different distortion levels look weird, like how a sphere will look like a rotating oval if it goes over your head a certain way
wet skiff
yea so all that you're currently thinking of happens before the "stretching" part of 4:3
if you're changing in game fov or from 16:9 to 4:3 that's all true and correct
what makes it different is that the game sees 4:3 and 4:3 stretched as the exact same, it doesn't do any changes or adjustments for that at all
it's all the exact same pixels that are being rendered. So when you move your mouse in xy, it's treated as if you're on a 43 square monitor, so the game does all the calculations for that to be 1:1 xy sens
So the game can't compensate or recalculate the sens you'd need once you stretch the image, hence why your x and y start to feel difference once you stretch it. If you don't stretch it and just keep it all default at 4:3, your xy are normal and 1:1
quaint karma
sensitivity has nothing to do with pixels
wet skiff
when you stretch you basically have x1.3333:y1, as a result. So if you want your xy to be equal, you can multiply your y sens by 1.3333 to get the same result. If you go back to normal 43, though, your y will be faster than your x and it'll feel really weird
quaint karma
its way more complicated than that
i cant pretend to know how it works but it works differently than you think
wet skiff
ya so basically im trying to explain that the angular distance is calculated on 4:3, not 4:3 stretched. Stretching it doesn't change or alter that in anyway, that's already calculated before you stretch the image.
so the stretching happens after all of those fov and sens and other calculations have already happened. All you're doing at that point is effectively making the pixels on your monitor wider. Everything is already rendered and done before you do that and the game treats it as a regular 43 image
quaint karma

how do i change my sens to cm per whatever
im super late to this
but anyways im in super low sens nowdays
dull falcon
.9 800 dpi'
wet skiff
that's a pretty low sens, I think 1.2/800 is 43 cm
so that's like 50
That's too low for me, my arm gets tired 😭
wet skiff
I used to do around 81 cm/360 for PUBG. Had the most gnarly recoil control and was best kar9 sniper you ever seen, but sucked at multitarget and if I got shot in the butt I was 100% dead lol
wet skiff
imo the biggest issue with that low sens is that you wear yourself out pretty quickly then you start having really lazy aim
wet skiff
I agree. I would personally say 43cm is the absolute lowest you should ever go for apex, that's 800/1.2 or 1600/0.6

you can play like as low as 50 imo

you know what i hate
seeing clips like this
and mnk players are proud of them
but any decent roller player hits these clips consistently without even thinking twice about it
first one you dont even have to move your stick
second one you coulda oneclipped the guy as he walked up
straight up
its silly
and respawn thinks this is good balancing
of inputs
dull falcon
sorta why im proud when i do manage to get one clips or like smooth tracking in game it feels more rewarding than the kill
quaint karma
yeah its just stupid
then they say midrange is easier on mnk
sure
marginally
and long range
i mean i guess
but you can just pick up a scout or a repeater
and nothing happens long range anyway
like actually
playing roller is the least rewarding thing ever
i literally feel like im playing a phone game
where all of the aiming is done for me
its also incredibly sluggish
dull falcon
its actaully way better
wet skiff
I think I gotta take a break from apex for a couple weeks
dull falcon
why?
wet skiff
I'll try grinding to like, masters in OW. Then come back. I need to ingrain my smooth tracking into a habit, and I think I'm just constantly reverting to all my old aiming habits because that's how I learned apex
so I play properly for like 2-4 games a day, then after that I revert and lose all my progress
that and the game is absurdly stale rn, Seer meta, visual clutter, 90% controller players. I just need a break from being aimbotted I think lol

Ok i slept and can actually think right now. It doesnt matter if the game knows what the fov actually is, and pixels have nothing to do with this. Your eyes are perceiving two different distortion amounts since you have changed your horizontal fov only. Distortion increases as you look away from the center of an fov, meaning lower fov looks flatter than higher fov which affects how if feels to look around whether you "match" your sens or not. Scopes feel different than hipfire even if you match the sens because the projection is much flatter and the aim feels more "2d", there is no way around that.
wet skiff
our eyes are perceiving two different distortion amounts since you have changed your horizontal fov only.
going from 43 to 43 stretched you aren't changing the fov, though
devout tusk
it does not matter what the game thinks
you are seeing something different
YOUR fov
for YOUR EYES
is changing
as far as the game is concerned nothing has changed at all so you wouldnt even need to scale at all
your y sens
wet skiff
you would
devout tusk
i cba man
wet skiff
because the pixels for your x axis are wider now by 33%, and the game doesn't know you've stretched. So it'll feel faster in your x than in your y even though it's the same distance you are traveling

I honestly think doing that would be the best for ranked longterm. It's the only way to get matchmaking functioning well, imo.
Best way to do it would be that you can trio up until diamond, after diamond it's pure solo queue. Keeps the casuals happy, and fixes all the mm issues that happen in diamond+. No more pro 3 stacks running through diamond lobbies.
Pros/streamers would hate it at first, but I bet they'd end up really liking it after a while especially if there are regular scrims(which they would have to take more seriously now) or that alternate third party ranked league they are proposing
dusky veldt
can someone help me with this it just started happening and it only happens when i move my mouse
wet skiff
I'm not sure what you are trying to show in that clip
wet skiff
Are you using one of those 8000hz mice? Try setting your mouse polling rate to 250, then to 1k and see if it fixes it. Otherwise, i'd look for drivers / firmware updates for the mouse, or see if there's any other drivers you might have that could be causing interference. Unplug controllers as well, and check your mouse cables/wireless connectors
make sure game is in fullscreen, and disable fullscreen optimizations for it, then you can also look at overriding dpi behavior, sometimes that fixes it, you'll have to google how though i can't recall off the top of my head what the correct settings are
lastly, does the same thing happen in dx12 and dx11?
or any other games?
dusky veldt
im using the gpro superlight and all fullscreen optimizations are disabled i verifed the integrity and it doesnt happen in any other game all my drivers are up to date also
i just switched the polling rate and its the same
wet skiff
do you have a different mouse to test out?
wet skiff
ok so at least you know it's not a hardware issue, it's something else. Maybe conflicting drivers or some software that's causing it. I'd uninstall all your device input drivers, then re-install them, as well as reinstalling apex and removing all your profile/settings and any cache that could be there. Could also do a graphic driver reinstall, may even be something dumb like that. Use DDU to uninstall that, then NVcleanstall to install your preferred driver if you're nvidia

@wet skiff how many hours in kovaaks?
it's powerful because you retain ads accuracy for about another 1 second (which is a low, 0, 0.1, 0,.2 and up etc)
when hip firing except you can suddenly strafe fast
whats your benchamrk?
recoil control + positioning + awareness + in game knowledge such as the un adsing all make a big difference
oh
look around you xD
that can happen
but as a general rule
if there are 3 squads in 1 area, including yours, it's stalemate, you don't want to push either of the other 2 because you'll be third partied

wet skiff
but not sure how much of that is recent, I tried a lot in the past and only got a tiny bit in
don't worry, that's normal for Apex. Situational awareness is really hard with how spotty and unreliable sound is and the amount of visual clutter there is. I have trouble keeping aware of opponents even in 3v3s, when in other games I can keep track of players much better
also a ton of mobility options that can make it difficult, especially when the sound doesn't work. Nothing much like having a player or squad land on top of you out of nowhere because horizon Q made no sound at all

by the time I'm on target before I even start tracking they've fucked off already lol
OW is feeling like pretty good practice, though
cus it's new to me so I can just really focus on trying to track smoothly
I want that to be like, my "default" way of aiming
something I just do naturally without thinking about it. So I figure I play OW for like 3 weeks, it becomes ingrained as a habit, then I try apex again and see if it sticks this time. Cus I keep reverting from that kind of aiming when I play apex
then I can hopefully keep getting better mouse control and actually benefit from those tougher scens

a lot of people practice smoothness but they dont practice being smooth while tracking reactively

a different thing

yea I try to do both. I'm not quite smooth enough yet to make that stick, but I think I'm really close to being at the point where I can do that sort of tracking well
I did notice that my reactive tracking scens aren't very smooth, even though the scores are ok, so I've been working hard on getting better
lusty vault
i just booted up kovaaks to play this scenario and i got 2 runs in before my wrist wanted to end it
so crazy i can play 12 hours straight of fps and have 0 issues and i play kovaaks for 2 minutes and pain
quaint karma
fps games are a lot less aim intensive imo
than kovaaks
especially stuff like this
lusty vault
yeah but when it comes to time comparisons
and then fatigue comparisons
its not worth it for me personally
everyone is different though
lusty vault
i tried to snipe but the 1 run i did put me out of commission
ill try again next year
aye to almost tie his score when i havent played in a year
ill take it
dull falcon
does the type of ssd you have effect anything

is something wrong with your wrist?

Pretty old score, not sure how I'd fare on it these days! I'll have to give it a go.
carmine viper
3 months since PB.
wet skiff
no issues until i play kovaaks
I did the wrist excercises that were in this discord for a few weeks and my wrist pain completely went away
maybe that help?
lusty vault
Yeah idk I can completely avoid it by not playing aim trainers
So it’s a win win for me
torn oyster
once i find a god tier finger excerise that helps with my stiff fingers
its over for everyone
Astral complete type beat. (not really)

whats yall wpm (speed typing)
dull falcon
wild
quaint karma
yeah i did it again recently like twice and got like 125
i dont think ive slowed down
who knows tho
you just gotta get into the groove
quaint karma
technically idont type as much as i used to
torn oyster
yeah im peaking at like 132 raw
still not awful though.
average typing speed in america is like 40-50 wpm
The average typing speed is around 40 words per minute (wpm). If you want to be very productive, you should aim for a typing speed of 65 to 70 words per minute.
torn oyster
its something you have to practice and do for years i feel like
i feel like if you played any social game. maple story, runescape, ect.
you're typing at 90+
dull falcon
i average like around 30-50( on agood day)

it feels different

im jumping into apex fundementals and doing smoothaim

im a hard pad person and i tend to push down on the mousepad only reason why i went for it
torn oyster

dull falcon
lowkey shoulda got a soft just for the new feeling
torn oyster
alright got skates from gwolf that are apparently really good on the skypad
so im looking forward to trying them
not doing glass skates on a glass pad, shits like air hockey at that point
quaint karma
that would damage the pad
dull falcon
i bought tiger ice in hopes for a skypad but im going to wait
they recommend ptfe feet or something for skypads
torn oyster
yh
i got sum : >
almost 24k. ill def be 25K+ by season end
atleast thats the goal, i havnt played all that much this season
most of my games are in ranked and ive only done like 150
already passed lifeline in damage, just need 27.8k to pass kills
dull falcon
wawe ur so good
torn oyster
nah but ty
by the end of next year, my plan is to be educational / entertainment VT team. but i need to actually do the kvk fundementals to even meet requirements
i didnt start content creation till several months ago. so i have that to work on too. i dont make videos as of late but i did make one.
dull falcon
send it ill watch it

dull falcon
i will show some highlights of 800 dpi .9 sens on r5 tomorrow if i remember
gentle mantle
You play 800dpi and.9 sens
cunning crane
actual shitter
lots of people have this mindset, not necessarily outright cheating but the idea of manipulating badges they can show off, I came across a 3 stack before who were letting only 1 guy try to get all the kills to try and get him a 20 bomb. Lots of people also make new accounts to get 4ks and 20bombs in the literal bot lobbies at the start
and the amount of people i've come across with 4k 20 bomb badges who are simply just bad at the game, or decent but not good enough, there's lots of manipulation
carmine viper
Anyone remember when people played for fun and not play for badges/stat chasing?
Wait that was never the case with Apex

nah theyre pretty goated. ive just moved to high sens so im missing smooth tracking right about now😔
tepid salmon
They're not all that great but thanks.
„nothing special“ almost one clips someone at like 200 m distance
frigid bramble
currently using 800dpi 2.8
torn oyster
I ment the other two. I beat a dead horse bc I like showing that one off
Everything else is your standard "I did a thing" moment
tepid salmon
Ah alright
torn oyster
I had a lot more clips but that hard drive for archive is gone
frigid bramble
im so shaky on this sens and i start to predict for whatever reason
torn oyster
Lost the entire drive
tepid salmon
Might be skill issues cause I clip alot tho
tepid salmon
1600 0.6
gentle mantle
Sens?
frigid bramble
800 2.8 though.
I could never.
ahahah its soooo difficult
tepid salmon
Used to play on like 60cm/360 lol
frigid bramble
besides warzone actually that was my first time ever doing warzone and i actually slapped at that, got a highlights video of that on yt, good tracking there
frigid bramble
but warzone felt easy to do with high sens. apex on the other hand..
gentle mantle
Pretty high but top of reactive range
frigid bramble
You lose so much tho with super high sens
yahh i guess so, but for me its the satisfaction of hitting a smooth tracking clip on a high sens which for me personally is VERY difficult
so the satisfaction of me hitting a tracking clip gets me like whaaaaaaaaat no way i hit that
gentle mantle
But what advantages is there of going so high why make it difficult?
frigid bramble
where as my 800 1.2 clips i like yeah sweet, got a clip
as i said, jus way more rewarding when you hit a clip
torn oyster
Yeah, you're only handicapping yourself
Tbh
Go fast sens all you want but
800 2.8 doesn't really help with that
frigid bramble
also a lot less effort IF you get it down pat, and i also sometimes have problem trying to play my fast pace play style on such a low sens idk but normal stuck like turning around and flicking and blah blah blah im having to throw my whole fuckin arm across the room and then my arm gets pretty tense and if i have to shoot directly after that then my aim isnt as smooth as id like it to be n mostly end up dying hahaha
yah. probably is a handicap. i jus feel like it fits the play style that i want to have and feels super rewarding to me🤷 . this is Day 1 though, and its my first time playing games in 2.5 months. ill probably rage on high sens n go back to slow😂
gentle mantle
Haha perhaps, you do whatever makes u feel good and interested
frigid bramble
haha, yeaaa. i also have heard tho that training on a high sens is very beneficial for your aim. learning to control shakiness etc. its even a command on this discord server im pretty sure
quaint karma
idk roller players literally play on sens so slow they can barely turn
only makes sense to emulate that
its rewarding enough to play raw input rather than having the game literally aim for you
echo inlet
why can't i improve at static? does it matter at all?
quaint karma
dont think so
but id try to at least get it to diamond
if you only practice tracking in kovaaks you never learn target acquisition
echo inlet
idk roller players literally play on sens so slow they can barely turn
one of my friends plays on 4-3 and still has shaky aim and loses 20-1 in close range only ads. and when I swapped to roller I beat him 8-0 with zero roller experience. that was when i realized most roller players are dogshit and thats why they need 0.4 beacuse it's literally aimbot
quaint karma
if you miss close range with roller you dont have hands
thats what i think
but bad mnk players are also bad
so why do only roller players get assistance
seems like a weird double standard
respawn just doesnt care at all about balancing
would roller players leave the game if mnk had slight bullet magnetism?
i doubt it
i kinda think that even without rotational AA it is probably easier to get good at close range roller
than mnk
cuz every move you make is smooth
inherent to the input
torn oyster
Which is 90% of roller players
quaint karma
and most of the 'decent' players also dont seem to know
they think their aim is their own
its really not
torn oyster
I stand by this. Idc how good roller is, I'm still bad with it
quaint karma
was playing 3stack arenas yesterday
had to charge my mouse
plugged in the roller and consistently shit on this pred path
💀
it shouldnt be like that
torn oyster
Going to have to give me a bit to get used to skypad before I even think about doing anything else
I think I hop in kvks for an hour or so and get used to it.
quaint karma
might take a few weeks
but the easier microadjustments while tracking should be immediately apparent
that can also be a detriment tho if your mouse control isnt there
cuz you might just make movements you dont wanna make
but the resistance of your pad stopped you before
all in all tho i dont think theres an enormous difference between different pads
although some people disagree
torn oyster
I've heard both sides and a pad is a pad. Some are faster than others.
I've always used slow pads
I'm eager to use it though
dull falcon
You play 800dpi and.9 sens
i do its amazing

This man sounds like his desk is filthy then.
Prob eats at his desk
And any pad will eventually eat ur feet. It's called wear and tear.
quaint karma
its true, if theres dust or hair on your pad youll feel it immediately
happens maybe once an hour
but its not really
important lol
and anyway, doesnt happen with uhmw tape on your feet

torn oyster
Oh for sure. I tend to keep my area clean clean though. So that issue won't occur as much.
I'll just keep a soft cloth near my pc
I prepped and got rid of the stock feet on my hts with the new feet.
I don't think I've used stock feet that were actually Good on any mouse I've owned
dull falcon
god stock feet at first feel scratchy
but they feel less scratchy after likea week or two
torn oyster
I dropped 20g from glorious to hts and that was a bit of a learning curve but only took a day or so for it to feel comfortable
I went back to use glorious for the giggles and I was thrown off by how heavy it was lol

you have to get a feel for the bots vertical movement and just do that automatically while reacting to their horizontal curving
your arc should be one smooth movement
